Considering the differences between environmental conditions of concrete structures and laboratory conditions, it is important to determine the parameters of the materials at the site of the structure. One of these materials is cement-based repair mortars due to the damage of concrete structures that may arise due to chemical or physical factors, these structures are required to be repaired. For this reason, in this paper, to determine the strength of repair mortars of different ages and under different Curing, Situ methods "Friction-Transfer" and "Pull-off" were used and the relationships between the Flexural Compressive, Tensile and readings obtained from the above methods on cementations mortars are presented. Experiments were performed on mortars at ages 3, 7, 28, 42 and 90 days under the conditions of "waterlogging", "Curing Agent" and "releasing in the outdoor". The results show the high impact of the process on the Flexural Compressive, Tensile of the repair mortars and the results of the "Friction-Transfer" and "Pull-off" methods. Also, a high correlation coefficient was obtained between the mechanical properties of the mortars and the results of the above tests; it is possible to measure the mechanical properties of repair mortars in situ with high confidence and in situ

The paper presents a complex of laboratory and theoretical studies of physical and mechanical properties in centrifuged concrete while using samples of sectoral cross-section which are cut in layers from a finished product. A post made of concrete having B40 grade for compression strength and manufactured while using centrifugation with the help of РТЦ-5 machine. Assessment of heterogeneity across section thickness has been carried out by visual determination of composition changes in cross section, determination of strength, density of the obtained concrete samples, and water content over cross section of concrete mix. According to the results of a visual study on composition of a concrete structure it has been revealed that 1/8 part of the structure (from an inner surface) does not have a large aggregate. Later, as it moves to periphery, there is an increase in coarse aggregate and a decrease in size and number of cells between grains of gravel. An analysis of experimental data has shown that properties of the centrifuged concrete in samples being sawn in layers change significantly: density of concrete in samples of an inner layer is lower by 8 % than in samples of an outer layer, and compressive strength of concrete – by 34 %, water content of concrete mixture of samples of the inner layer has turned out to be by 43 % higher than in samples of the outer layer. Approximating curves showing regularities of changes in density, concrete strength, water content of concrete mixture over thickness have been constructed in the paper. Linear and exponential equations have been obtained that describe changes in physical and mechanical properties of centrifuged concrete over section depending on structure properties as a whole, which, taking into account the obtained correction factors k1 and k2, can be used with an acceptable level of confidence in practical calculations of centrifuged concrete structures. Relationship between strength of centrifuged concrete varying over cross section and action of a centrifugal force of inertia has been revealed in the paper. An equation has been obtained that relates the strength of centrifuged concrete to its density. Analysis of the research results makes it possible to assert that the main source of loading perception in centrifuged concrete structures is outer layers.

During designing in historical object we can have a problem with historical reinforced concrete elements. Many designers, classifies this elements as low strength. They are convicted that this type of elements in historical building can be only a monument and cannot be used in this construction as an structural element. It is very important in this type of buildings to keep as many historical material as it is possible. Authors researched the literature which has been a guide in the design and execution of these elements. By comprising used algorithms and physico-mechanical properties of old materials with algorithms and materials, which are using today, we are able to estimate the strength of such elements.

The Impact

This article presents results of a theoretical study of reinforced concrete beams with damaged reinforcement. The change of micro-hardness of a reinforcing rebar’s with a diameter of 20 mm of A500C steel in the radial direction is investigated and the thickness of the heat-strengthened layer is established. It is established that the thickness of the thermo-strengthened steel layer of the reinforcing bar with a diameter of 20 mm of A500C is approximately 3 mm. It is shown that the strength characteristics of this layer are on 50% higher compared to the core material of the rebar, while the plasticity characteristics are lower. The aim of the work is to determine the strength and deformability of reinforced concrete structures without damaging the reinforcement and in case of damage. Determining the impact of changes in the physical characteristics of reinforcement on the damage of reinforced concrete structures, according to the calculation to the valid norms, in accordance with the deformation model. To achieve the goal of the work, theoretical calculations of reinforced concrete beams were performed according to the deformation model, according to valid norms. This technique uses nonlinear strain diagrams of concrete and rebar and is based on an iterative method. According to the research program 3 beam samples were calculated. Among them were undamaged control sample with single load bearing reinforcement of ∅20 mm diameter – BC-1; sample with ∅20 mm reinforcement with damages about 40% without changes in the physical and mechanical properties of reinforcement – BD-2 and sample with ∅20 mm reinforcement with damages about 40% with changes in the physical and mechanical properties of reinforcement – BD-3. The influence of change of physical and mechanical characteristics of rebar’s on bearing capacity of the damaged reinforced concrete beams is established.

Reinforcement steel bars are often exposed to the atmosphere before use in concrete structures. This exposure results in corrosion of these reinforcement bars. Corrosion of reinforcement bars is a common form of degradation of reinforced concrete structures. The electrochemical attack affects the mechanical properties of steel rebars. This study analysed the effect of exposing reinforcing steel bars to the atmosphere. The bars were divided into two; one part was exposed to the atmosphere for a period of four months during the rainy season while the other was unexposed. Afterwards; some mechanical, corrosion and metallographic tests were carried out on the steel samples. The results obtained showed that the hardness, impact strength and ductility increased with exposure while the yield and tensile strengths decreased with exposure. The exposed bar had high corrosion rates than the unexposed bar in 1M hydrochloric acid (HCl) while in 1M sodium chloride (NaCl), the corrosion rates for both the exposed and unexposed bars did not follow a particular trend

Moduli Of Elasticity

This article explores the influence of transverse reinforcement (spiral) and high-strength longitudinal reinforcements on the physical-mechanical properties of centrifuged annular cross-section elements of concrete. The test results of almost 200 reinforced, and over 100 control elements are summarizing in this article. The longitudinal reinforcement ratio of samples produced in the laboratory and factory varied from 1.0% to 6.0%; the transverse reinforcement ratio varied from 0.25% to 1.25%; the pitch of spirals varied from 100 mm to 40 mm and the concrete strength varied from 25 MPa to 60 MPa. Experimental relationships of coefficients for concrete strength, moduli of elasticity and limits of the longitudinal strain of centrifuged concrete in reinforced concrete structures in short-term concentrically compression were proposed.
